Shit on the City has more nationwide applications though.

What about barmpot? Is that a brummyism?

Not sure about pisspoor, Bruce Willis used it in Armageddon, unless it's done really well and made it to America like some other English words they occasionally spout.

Spout. Is that a Brummyism or an Englishism?

There's a lot of isming going on here.

Isming. Have I just created a new one? :)

And what about "and he turned around to me and said.." "so I turned around to him and said..".

Is everyone spinning around Kylie style whilst conversing?

I never heard that until my mum married (then divorced thankfully) some twat from Bradford, so it's either a northern saying that's slipped south or t'other way round.

It might have been all around the reekin.

This is a universal affronted retort. "Up until that point it was possible to ignore Kylie's tiresome waffle but she crossed the line with her last remark and I had to look her in the face and say well if that's your attitude..."&c.

How about: "One thing led to another and we ended up in bed." I hear that a lot down our local, especially from the other girls in my Stechford crew.

Going on from Peaky's last message, what about "Up the duff"? Is that pure Brummie?
